206 AM EST Fri Jan 23 2026 .DISCUSSION... KEY MESSAGE 1...Locally heavy lake effect snow will continue today east of Lake Ontario with more limited snow east of Lake Erie, before moving south and weakening tonight. Lake induced equilibrium levels will continue to run near 10K feet today through this evening before dropping tonight as the very cold airmass becomes more shallow. This will continue to support heavy lake effect snow off Lake Ontario through this evening, with the Lake Erie snow weakening this morning. Off Lake Erie... A band of heavy lake effect snow stretching from the Chautauqua County shoreline to the Buffalo Southtowns and Batavia will tend to move inland and weaken through the pre-dawn hours. The dendritic growth zone will become very shallow and low by midday as an extremely cold airmass moves over the lake. This, combined with diminishing moisture and loss of upstream connections will bring a quick weakening to lake effect snow this morning. Additional accumulations after 6 AM will be limited to 1-2" across the higher terrain south of Buffalo, with the lake effect snow diminishing to scattered light snow showers by this afternoon.
